resident Joe Biden pledged that the U.S would remain the 'largest single country donor' of humanitarian assistance and vowed to help 'climate proof' the world in his address to United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday.
His calls come as Republicans in Washington and on the campaign trail say they'd trim international aid budgets, as Nikki Haley has, and throw climate cautions to the wind, as Vivek Ramaswamy suggested at the first GOP debate.
Biden also talked up the success of PEPFAR - the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief - as its reauthorization is at stake over conservative claims that it supports abortion abroad.
'We saved tens of millions of lives that would otherwise be lost to preventable and treatable diseases like measles, malaria and tuberculosis,' Biden said, championing what countries have been able to do collectively. 'HIV/AIDS infections and deaths plummeted in no small part becuase PEPFAR's work in more than 55 countries, saving more than 25 million lives.'
Biden acknowledged that while the globe had seen decades of progress 'the world has lost ground these past years in the wake of COVID-19, conflicts and other crises.'
'The United States is committing to doing its part to get us back on track,' the president said.
He touted the $100 billion already given toward development during his firts two years in office.
'And as we work together to recover from global shocks, the United States will also continue to be the largest single country donor of humanitarian assistance at this moment of unparalleled need in the world,' the president said.

33 trillion dollars in debt, I believe it was 31 trillion less than a year ago. I bet on a graph it is approaching verticality when plotting time and total debt.
In biology when things go vertical like that on a graph it means something is unsustainable.
Yet our politicians (sleepy joe this time) keep spending and borrowing, or printing. Like here making promises to be the “worlds” cash cow.
Revelation 13:15-18
New King James Version
15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has [a]the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Since he always lies most likely nothing changes from what’s already been happening. If not, the thugs that money ends up with will bring it back here and raise real estate and stock prices.
We just passed 33 trillion.
True that. A graph of our rising debt looks a lot like Biden’s “vote” count rising sharply after 3 am.
At least he already cured cancer and apparently will save the earth from floods , tornados and heat waves….
elections stolen from the People always result in the People being robbed of the money that belongs to the People. but eventually this administration will run out of other people’s money. then they will need lots of work gangs. guess who will get those jobs.
NO!! HELL NO!!! ENOUGH ALREADY!!!
I’m beyond Sick And Tired of America being the PIGGY BANK and WORLD POLICE.
FJB, and every damned Liberal Democrat!
Bankrupting the US is the communists plan. Man made climate change does not exist.
They certainly have. Now let’s see if it works both ways...Like never before!
Cloward and Piven plan or something like that?
Did he get out of his straight jacket again?
...’saving more than 25 million lives.’
But isn’t the world over-populated???
Those 25 million people who could have died are still contributing to global warming/ cooling/ whatever.
It is so hard to keep up with the liberal logic of the day.

No foreign aid to any nations. No exceptions.
He describes the typical liberal perfectly.
Brandon….The chief watermelon environmentalist. Green on the outside…red on the inside
Biden’s going to climate proof the planet but he can’t keep from soiling his Depends. What a sick joke.
